Teacher Week '13...Let's Talk About Me Monday!

I am super excited to join in on this awesome Blog Hop!  You really need to make sure you swing by there! So, the first day is to talk about me....not something I really like to do a lot...but here goes! I'm going to share ten things about me so you can get to know me better...

1.  FAMILY My family is so important to me!  My dear hubby, of almost 27 years, and I have two incredibly, awesome, talented sons...Brandon, age 31 and Blake, age 25.  We have a lovely daughter-in-love, Carrie and the most precious grangirl, Kennedy Grace, age 3, EVER!  I adore my kids, but WOW!  

There is just something different about being a Gramma!  It is THE BEST!!! Our oldest son isn't married yet, but has a girlfriend, who we adore!  We also have the smartest yellow lab, Maggie Bleu! 2.  GOD Our God is an awesome God, who we look to for daily guidance.  He knows what we need, and what He wants for our lives, and we are so blessed to know Him on a most personal level! 3.  PINK OMG, I  LOVE, LOVE, LOVE PINK!  I don't decorate in pink...except for our grangirl's room so she can have the princess room that she deserves when she comes to visit.  However, I dress in PINK...A LOT!!!!!!!!!  :) 4.  SHABBY CHIC I LOVE anything time-worn...or at least looks like it is...anything chippy or shabby has a good chance of coming home with me! 5.  CREATING Since we have an empty nest now, I spend much more time now {as if I didn't spend enough before} creating things for my classroom!!! 6.  GRAPHICS I adore cute clip art and graphics, so I draw a lot of my own!

7.  WINE Well, that should be enough said, but yeah....I love a good glass or two or three of wine! 8.  LONDON Since I visited London for ten days in 2003, I have become even more captivated with England...especially London, and the English countryside.  

I would LOVE to live in a cottage somewhere in the English countryside some day!!! 9.  MEXICAN...CHINESE... My favorite foods EVAH!!!

10.  IMPRACTICAL JOKERS OMG!  These guys are hilarious!  Since I saw them in person at Zanies nightclub in Nashville, I adore these guys even more!  I look forward to Thursday nights when I can get my laugh on!   I LOVE SAL, Q, JOE, and MURR!!! Ok, so there you go...these are 10 things that I adore in addition to teaching...which is my PASSION...my CALLING in life! Want to know more about other teachers...head on over to the linky party HERE!
